THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 25
Back to the company of the de la Barrera family, the same hell was waiting for her and the same empty life that had embraced Stefan since the moment Elisa died. “Okay, these ones are the basis we’re presenting to ensure the consumption of the new product that we’re releasing next year, Mr. de la Barrera. We also want to proceed with the next restaurants to open in Paris. Do you agree with the summary of the information we have proportioned to you, Mr. de la Barrera?” One of the shareholders asked, wanting to get the attention of the man who was sitting down across from him. Stefan had his gaze low while his pen drew many figures on the blank pages he had before the meeting had started. Stefan seemed to still be thinking about anything else, but in the questions the man had asked. The eyes of the other shareholders fixed on him, waiting for his answer. “Mr. de la Barrera?” The man insisted. “Yes?” He replied, as soon as he realized his mistake of not paying attention to the meeting
THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 26
One, two, three… four, how many more hours would go away until he decided to focus on the things he needed to do? The truth was that he couldn’t take the two nights he was with his employee out of his head. The sick face of his employee couldn’t leave his mind, that smile of hers that he had never seen had become part of his curiosity, and of course he could interpret it as a honest smile, he could see at the moment she smiled to her friend, she was happy to see her there. Why did he have the need to come back to the hospital and tell her again that nothing of what had happened should be misunderstood by her? Maybe because beyond being her whom he wanted to convince, it was to himself who should be understood the truth, in such a way he may let die all of those strange ideas that his mind was working. He still loved Eliza. He didn’t care if she was no longer in this world. Tired of that, wishing to forget about his job, he took his suit coat and left the company with just one idea i
THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 27
Sitting down on the comfort of his chair, Stefan couldn’t help but think over and over the step by step of his revenge against her, the same one he was planning on while carrying on with another one. He was sure of what he was going to do, he was convinced that it was his mistake for not letting the hatred and pain he felt since his fiancé died deal with the situation and lead his entire life.Since the moment that Maria Fernanda arrived at his company, carrying a super power she did never have, thinking of herself as the last of her kind just because no one had dared to do what she did when she talked back to him, the great Stefan de la Barrera, suddenly she came against him and everyone adored her.But he had enough of her, he was tired of her and swore that no one else was going to interfere in his life, his plans and his feelings. Without further ado, he took the picture of the woman who was smiling when they took that photo. He swore they were going to be happy, she had a long l
THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 28
With those airs and graces that only he could be characterized by, the most flirtatious smile with which he always greeted any woman who passed him by, Elijah de la Fuente had just arrived at the company.“Good morning, sir," greeted his secretary, going after him with a pen and agenda to start letting him know everything he had to do that day along with the things she had to do for him on this new day. “What do we have for today?”“Today we have two meetings, you have the signing of the contract with the wine producer, and later you have the visit of the CEO of the American company. And I think that's all for today.”“That's all?” he asked sarcastically. “Well, we'd better get on with it.”“Is there anything I need to do today?”Elijah just looked at her. “No, not beyond your work." He said when suddenly a thought came to his mind. “Oh wait, now that you mention it, I think there is something you can do for the day.”“Whatever you want, sir.” “I need you to look into what happene
THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 29
With her heart going up and down, feeling her soul leaving her body, tears streaming down her cheeks and her mind full of memories and thoughts that she couldn't handle all at once, Maria Fernanda, with one hand on her chest, tried to calm herself.How was it possible that the gentleman, whom she had kindly invited in, thought she could digest at once all the information he had given her during the last 30 minutes? It was too much for her. The man didn't know how hard those statements had hit her fragile heart.Where the hell was he when she was thrown in jail for a crime she hadn't committed? Where the hell was he when she claimed to be innocent but no one believed her, not even the lawyer the state had appointed for her?Day and night he tore at her throat claiming that she had not killed that poor woman who breathed her last in her arms. Day and night she waited for a miracle until Antonio appeared, without much to do for her but showing her the possibility of revenge on those who

Putting down her coffee, Maria Fernanda smiled at the entrance of the cafeteria as soon as her eyes spotted Antonio. He also smiled when he saw Maria Fernanda after all that time. “Maria Fernanda, you’re here,” he greeted her. “Please, take a seat. Sorry, I had to order my coffee before your arrival.” “Oh, no! Don’t worry, Maria Fernanda. I understand how you can be.” They laughed. “Anyways, why did you ask me to come? I mean, it’s not like it bothers me, but…” She giggled at seeing how uncomfortable he was. It had always been the problem of Antonio. Despite being a lawyer, there were moments when he didn’t make any effort to not mess up with his words and just said things like he was thinking them. “I understand, Antonio. You don’t need to explain yourself. I know you’re surprised to see me here after… after all…” “Shh! It’s okay, Maria Fernanda. You don’t need to pronounce it. To tell the truth, I was aiming for this moment even though I didn’t know how to call you after all
THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 31
Coming into the enormous kitchen that was also in the first story of the company, Maria Fernanda didn’t allow herself to feel nervous despite the looks she was gaining by walking in front of the people who had already started working. It seemed like she’d have to introduce herself to the chefs there, who were looking at her like the one who was about to steal their positions.No one dared to smile at her. No one dared to make her feel welcomed. She was just a stranger to them. Someone who didn’t deserve to receive their welcome when they had the highest positions there. They were like the right hand of that company and they knew it. “Good day, everyone, I hope you’re all doing okay this day,” Maria Fernanda started. All of them just blinked. No one replied. Maria Fernanda cleared her throat. The vibes that the people there were giving off were heavier than she ever thought they’d be. “Well, it’s good to know you’re all fine,” she replied to herself. “I’m not going to take so much
THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 32
Even if she felt like a helpless worm in front of Elijah, Maria Fernanda knew how to still stand up. No one had the right to make her feel less. It was enough with all she had gone through. It seemed like people didn’t like it when it comes to being a genuine soul. They were always there to remind us we’re nothing in this world with a transparent soul. They were always there to destroy that beautiful soul and make us as false as them. And then, they’re asking why we're so false. This wasn’t the kinda world where everyone could be happy without being judged. This was the world of falseness. “I don’t know who told you that. I don’t know what you’re doing here, but let me tell that if Mr. de la Fuente sent you here to try what he couldn’t because I asked him to go, let me tell that-“ “No one sent me here, Maria Fernanda!” Elijah raised his voice. “Oh! Really? And are you expecting me to believe that?” “Seems like this is where we start opening up, right?”“Just tell the man I don’t

THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 63
When Elijah got to the room Mr. de la Fuente was using, he could see through the door that was slightly opened a different side of Adamaris, maybe the most vulnerable one. He had never seen that side of Adamaris, she was always the one with the sparking personality, the one who didn’t care about anything but having the most handsome and successful man with her. That was exactly what he thought when he went behind her and found her in the hands of that stranger who just wanted to take advantage of her. Too late he was realizing the fact of not having a family by her side also caused pain.Alone in that room, by Mr. de la Fuente’s side, she could be vulnerable. With the hand of Arturo between hers, her head relying on her hands and sobbing, Elijah could see she was suffering for Mr. de la Fuente. She was worried, she was praying for his health, and was taking care of him as Maria Fernanda hadn’t had the time to.“Please, Mr. de la Fuente… Please, you have to stay with your granddaughter
THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 62
At the hospital General where Maria Fernanda had been taken, Elijah was in the waiting room with his head between his legs, remembering what had just happened. He didn’t want to know anything about Stefan and all the things that had just happened. Also, he wasn’t sure if Maria Fernanda knew the truth that Adamaris had confessed to him. Elijah did have no idea about that. How come Eliza and Isela could be sisters? In which moment all of that happened? No one involved there had the strength to accept that truth. Was it possible that Mr. de la Fuente knew that all along and was the reason why he helped with the revenge against Stefan? Mr. de la Fuente was also a bad person who used Maria Fernanda.Suddenly, the voice of Adamaris called his attention. He raised his head, and there she was. But she wasn’t alone. Elijah had been clear enough when he said he wanted Adamaris there alone because Mr. de la Fuente couldn’t know anything.“Adamaris! What did-““Where’s my daughter?” Mr. de la Fue

By the time Enrique arrived at the amusement park with Isela, she was already awake. She was no longer afraid of him, she knew how he acted and what he was capable of, that was the reason that being with him was the same as being in hell, where she’d lived for the last 6 years.The bandages around her wrists were all stained with blood, she was bleeding out and didn’t care. Enrique had brought her there just for one reason: it was time to end with what he started but never had the time to finish. Isela was that woman who was going to open any door to the world of power. Enrique needed her in every aspect of his life, and Isela needed to end her revenge. It was a win-win, right?“Leave me alone!” She cried out, releasing of his grab.Enrique smiled. There was no place to run. The amusement park was just for the two of them because Stefan had made him the favor to rent that place for whatever special occasion.“Dear Isela, my love, how long has it been since we shared a room? I still r

Going crazy due to the information his friend had given him about Maria Fernanda, Stefan just knew one thing: he had to find out where she was. Maria Fernanda couldn’t have just faded like that. But the most important, why was she going behind him? It was like someone had abducted her, and had prevented her from being with Stefan. Many things started to flow in his mind.The car continued running through the highway that was going to lead him to where her car was. Stefan’s people were already there together with police.Finally, his car stopped as soon as he saw many people gathered around the car.“Hey, Mr. de la Barrera?” The officer asked.“Yes, I am.”“Glad to meet you.” The man tried to be respectful towards him. He had heard many stories about the great Stefan de la Barrera when all Stefan wanted was to know what they’d found until now. “I’m officer Gonzalez.”“Yes, glad to meet you too. Where is she?” “Ammm, we’re still investigating, but the scene, the way the car is parked i

An old man with glasses and hair almost completely white arrived at the old hospital of the town with a woman in his arms. He was scared, he was afraid that the woman in his arms was already dead.“Help! Please, help!” The man cried out.Nurses and doctors turned around in sync. In front of them there was a man with his gray sweater already stained with blood. The woman in his arms was completely unconscious. Doctors and nurses went directly to him while another nurse approached with a gurney.“What happened?” A doctor received her.“It was a mistake! I swear it was a mistake! I didn’t see her crossing the… the… I’m sorry!” The man felt really guilty. He was already crying.“Okay, please, contact her family.” One of the nurses asked while Maria Fernanda was taken with them, who were already assisting her with oxygen and intravenous drip.The man sat down on one of the old benches with his head falling through his legs. He was so pitiful. He felt so bad. It was his intention. Of course
THE CEO'S REVENGE CHAPTER 58
With her heart broken, tears in her eyes and thinking everything was a lie: Elijah had used her just to satisfy his own revenge because Eliza ended up being his cousin. Maria Fernanda just wanted to end it. She wanted to end what she had started just by her thoughts, thoughts that came true. Everyone had lied to her. Elijah and her grandfather had lied to her. How come? She was supposed to be his granddaughter, the only person he had in his life. So, Stefan and she were just victims?Running through the avenue, without caring about the sound of the cars, Maria Fernanda crossed, looking for a taxi that could take her to where her grandfather was. On her way, she tried to contact Adamaris, but nothing. She didn’t pick up her calls. Maria Fernanda was suffering. That reminded her when she was told that if she wanted to get revenge, she should dig two graves, but never thought the first grave was going to be for herself, so it was her decision to drag Stefan to the second grave or let him

Suddenly, Maria Fernanda felt a little weak, the story Alona was telling her was so much for her. Even she could feel the pain of Alona.“Miss., do you feel okay?” Alona asked.“Yeah, yeah, please, go on.”Alona looked at her and then Alona continued her story. “I felt like something was strange. Antonio had never been that kind of man, he knew I couldn’t get worried because of our baby, he was aware of that, but suddenly, he forgot it. I tried to contact him until the ring door rang. Two men in gray suits were standing right there, they gave me the name of Antonio, his whole name, they told me Antonio had to go to another country because of the trail, the celebration of some trial, I still don’t understand. They said he tried to contact me but his cell phone didn’t work. I know, I know it sounds strange, but I didn’t care about that. I was afraid that Antonio wasn’t okay. I decided to travel since the trial of the person Antonio was standing up for was going to take some time. It was
